Thanks for the honest review. I'm a pioneer DJ but sold my SRT and bought the Rane One. I have no regrets.
Good choice!
Good choice I love my Rane one!
Any significant difference not having the built in effects on the rane ? I’m debating on trying out the rane one, I currently have the srt. But reading and watching the reviews the rane doesn’t have built in effects.
Obviously it does have the echo out and reverb I’m assuming with the knobs an stuff but idk how different it will be
Great review, I like it because of your honesty and not trying to sell it or more lean to one brand over the other. I myself being a mobile dj as well appreciated the fact you pointed out one important thing and that was if coming from ttb and being using the in battle style the rv7 would be at home. I have been battling which controller to get since I have using ttb battle style and none of dj who do reviews ever made that simple point that you made especially coming from another mobile dj in regards to be using ttb. Thank you joe for always bringing content and bring honest about it.
Great review and love the honesty on both of the machines. I am currently using a pioneer sb3 and it has been great. From your review, i hope that one of these days i will be able to afford the ddj rev7 considering i am a scratch dj. Everything looks nice on the controller, from the knobs to the wheels. Great works Joe Bunn👏🏼
Thank you!
I Tried both units and I went with the Rev 7 because im more of a turntable guy plus I like how the REV 7 is spaced out as its not to cramped up altogether like the RANE 1 where everything is too close and you can accidentally press the wrong button as I'm coming off from the DDJ-SX2 but been using turntables forever, but I would say 95% I went with the REV 7 is actually the mixer it has everything you need even though I don't own a S9 OR S11 this is interesting, thinking of upgrading to a S11 to my turntables 1200 MK5... Dope review by the way enjoyed it. Thanks BUNN
Glad you liked it.
My primary controller journey since I've started DJing in 2011: Mixtrack Pro MK1 -> Pioneer DDJ WeGo3 -> Pioneer DDJ SR2 -> Pioneer DDJ SX3 -> Rane One (With back-up controllers being the Hercules Starlight -> Reloop Ready).
I've thoroughly enjoyed the transition to motorized platters and having the feeling of turntables. I've DJ'ed some on battle style set ups, so it's not extremely foreign, but definitely a difference.
I appreciate the approach of considering the practicality of the controller. I won't lie, the raised legs are among top 3 reasons I love my Rane One. I've come to rely on that space since I'm often in clubs and/or my facade/table set up is not space friendly for a coffin with a shelf. So that newfound space is now something I don't want to live without now, haha.
Good video and approach to both units. Markers of a phenomenal time for DJ controllers, and the direction forward for them as well.
Edit: ALSO, a controller with an IEC power hook up is incredibly clutch and I never want to know life without it on a DJ controller haha.
Thanks for the review. I've been using the Sx2 and 3 for years now and have been thinking about getting a new controller. I would have never considered the Rane but now you've got me thinking...
Good choice!
Thanks for a solid video, I'm moving from SX3 and I think this tipped the scales to Rev 7 for me, now to pre-order.
I would love to have that Rane one now as you are even me quite used to pioneer equipments but this time Rane has done the Poineer's Job. It was very informative video Joe. Thank you
Nice one Joe!
Don’t want this to come off the wrong way, I watch a ton of YT vids, Versus vids, full gear breakdowns etc, and I really appreciate your approach here. It was a fresh look at getting the gear home and experiencing it.
And the big nod to our mobile dj industry of course!
Great Review, I still use the NS7 3 and love it, but I have been looking at both. What kind of covers are those on your tables ?
Which ones?
I am about to upgrade to the Rev 7 or the Rane one. Currently I have the DDJ Rev1. And I a have a lot of events lined up next year. Thanks for the honest review on both now time to decide.
Hey I am going to buy the Rev 7 I had the dj 1000 SRT I see in your video I will have to practice to adjust to that new difference with the mixer. I love the layout on the Rane and the type of input jacks at the back of it I wish pioneer had copy that.
Hey Joe. I'm buying the rane one coming from the ddj 1000. The rane one is currently on special in price. I have to learn to use the rotating platter and serato. ...Great video
I had seen a video or 2 of yours before, but really enjoyed this one. I have been DJing for quite some time, have never went and bought "quality" turntables, but these days wouldn't want to carry those and crates of vinyl around anyhow... I've messed about with all the software options at least a little, and may someday move towards separates or a standalone with Engine, but for now I'm a Serato user and really love that platform. I currently use a Denon MC7000, and it's a great unit. I've been wanting to add a Denon player to my kit, and eventually would like SOMETHING with a moving jog, so I've been debating on adding the SC6000M or just a regular 6000...this would eventually be paired with something like a Rev7 or Prime 4 ... I'm not a big fan of Record box...and also don't think Engine has quite gotten there yet for a main platform that suits my style, I really love Serato. I am kinda leaning now towards the Rev7, and a SC6000. The player would be for backup and certain occasions, as well as for requests using Tidal (prefer to keep the Laptop offline) ... the other option would be a 6000M to get accustomed to motorized jogs....
Which player do you think I should add to my current kit, motorized or non? Should that depend on which main controller/unit I plan to end up with later, or should I disconnect these two decisions from each other ? As far as the 2 mixers shown here, the Rev7 is the clear winner for me, the jog screens, silent cue, hardware effects, ability to use 2 mics and Aux at the same time, etc... definitely puts this well beyond the Rane One for me.... I frequently use the 2 mics and Aux all at the same time (karaoke) ... and would really like the ability to add effects besides filter to external inputs....so there's a few reasons the Rev7 wins out.... I have found ONE downside that I guess is somewhat just part of going 2ch vs 4ch... not having those extra channels, or at least a CUE for the aux input... having a 2ch battle mixer layout, but having a more robust aux would somewhat turn it into a 2+1 kind of mixer. At least the features on the Rev make it more like a full featured 2ch mixer, vs the Rane which is basically a Serato controller, with very limited features as far as being a mixer for external sources... I really wanted to like the Rane and get stuck in with motorized jogs, but it just didn't fit my workflow.... but I do want to try scratch practice on something that isn't static platters, and I think this winter I'm definitely going to end up buying SOME new kit, whether that is a Denon player, a Prime 4, a Rev 7, or...? Not sure.... maybe I should wait until after NAMM to decide?
Thanks for the content, liked and subbed and will go check out your channel some more soon.
Cheers...
Great video! I see that you can use the Rane one with a iphone or iPad. Now that’s handy!!
Thinking about grabbing the Rane One. I tend to lean more towards simplicity versus bells and whistles. I currently have the Traktor S4 MK3 so I want to stay with motorized platters. Most of the effects on that I don't even use. Now I'm kind of curious as to what Rane might come out with. Think I should wait? 🤔
I really don't know. The Rane One has been out for a while now. I bet they're cooking up something new. Fall release perhaps?
Joe can you tell me where you got the table skirts to hide the cables, I find it ingenious. Thanks!
I think it's part of the table package, fastsetusa.com
I own both controllers and I absolutely love them no regrets of purchase🥰🔥🔥
of course u should feel that way since u bought them both but which u find yourself using more?
@@junyah1976 I haven’t test the Rev 7 yet I felt like lost sheep after unboxing just looking at it . I rebox it and put it away. Hopefully one day I’ll feel confident enough to give it a try. I’m currently using my rane one and I absolutely love it 🥰🤣
@@silksluxury_boutique2170 do you think the rane mk2 is coming soon though?
I really appreciate your honesty in your videos. Personally I'm a Denon man. I have the Prime 4 but Man do I wish The Prime 4 had rotating platters. for those of us who started out on turntables it would be the ultimate. I have tried both of these and was very surprised by the Rev 7 . but I didn't get enough time to decide if I had a preference between the 2. Keep it up. as a guy who has been DJing for over 20 years myself. I enjoy when I see a REAL DJ do a review
I appreciate that!!!!
Much luv indeed gratitude
What year is your Macbook Pro Laptop??? Needs to know because i plans To Upgrade…Thanks….i was surprises how easy it was to connect ?…
I think that's one of the newer ones M1
ok great,
Hey Joe nice video I have an older Ddj sr2 and the 1000 debating on buying the Rev 7 or some Rane 12’s , I’m not really a scratch DJ but after all these years have given it a go , funny being the same age and thinking of muscle memory and stuff .. so true thanks for the heads up
I was gonna get 1000-srt and I got the Rane one cause they wasn’t a Rev available at the moment, and I was using a Numark 3. This is Big lol for me🔥
I had the money to get either but, went with the Rane One.
I like the functionality of the Rev7 but, have heard that after a lil usage, the paint comes off the faceplate around the crossfader.
It’s a minor detail though 👍🏽
both nice machines!
I was wondering how long it took for you to receive your cold sparkler. The Marines have moved up Hubby’s deployment date so we’ve had to move up the wedding date. We’re located in Greensboro, NC and the wedding is now May 28th and review made us want them for the wedding!
We have two sets here. We only use them outside. Reach out to Rick Web in your area if you want to rent some!
I have rane one . Personally I loved to make scratch
Cool video. I'm a turntable guy, buy love my 1000srt. Don't have extra money to spend, but would consider Rane One. Thanks!!
“…In a moment of selflessness…” I’m surprised he didn’t preface that statement with a “because I am such a humble guy…”
Just curious. You decided to go with giggin with the flx 10 over the rev 7. Why is that ?
weight and I don't care about the spinning tops.
Thanks for reply. 🤝
I love my rain one but I’m still having trouble fine-tuning the effects. It would be nice if they were on board effects. Also, I wouldn’t mind using record box with my rain one.
I feel like every time I get a controller it doesn't have everything.
@@DJJoeBunn .. that’s always the case with these controllers lol
And I’m also having trouble fine tuning the effects I wish someone would make a video on how to get them to sound half way decent!
I loved the effects on the sb2 more than my Rane one which is weird because they both use serato fx. My Rane one fx always sound … off :/
@@warrensid .. yup exactly my Rane one effects be off like a mofo as well lol!
The battle layout pretry natural for me i rember using belt drives like that so pinoneer rev7 seems pretty kool prefer rotating platter
Finally someone being honest about this 2 controllers and not making it so confusing and talking bad about any of the brands ! Good one Joe
Thank you!
The Rane one is basically a two channel Numark NS7. It uses all of the technology from the NS7 including the exact same motor drives from the NS7ii.
Now that InMusic owns Akai,Rane,Denon and of course, Numark, of which they have discontinued. It is only natural that they will pull together the best technology within their range. I have just purchased the Pioneer Rev seven after using Numark NS7 for the last 11 years. Part of me wishes I had brought the Rane as the build quality is far better than the pioneer. I know and trust the Engineering’s have used it for so long without so much as a glitch.
I come from the era of turntables DJ and clubs throughout the 80s 90s and still now. I still use an NS7ii to this day. I only upgraded because of the stems capability.
I still have my S9 & 1210s and that is also another reason I went with the Rev 7 being that the mixer is similar in so many ways.
Looks cool man, I ended up scooping a Denon DJ SC5000M, wish it had sample options, but I guess you can load samples on deck B, when mixing on the SC5000M, where it has basically 2 dex built into one unit, which is pretty cool, especially if you have two units, then your rockn 4 dex at once 👍🎵🎶
Great video, does the Rane One have sample options? Was very curious. Definitely gotta get back into my practice sessions again 👍🙏😎🎵🎶
Good question. I need to play around with it more to dig into that.
Does the rev 7 have split cue
Not sure, I think so. I sent it off to a winner, or I'd go look for you.
That is a really beautiful Rev 7. I think I have one like it. ;) Thanks again brother!
lucky bastard
You bet! You won!
I installed the driver 3 times on the Rev 7 before i realized the trim was turned down also 😖
Ugh.
Hey Joe, also only played on motorised platters once.,think I'll pick the Rane one although I am a big Pioneer fan. Mostly because of the layout. Would also consider buying the rane 12s because of price 🔥
Solid choice for sure.
You forgot to weight the wall wart on the Rev7.
I am getting a Rane 1 come hell or high water
Get you one!
I'm a big fan of my Rane One, but find myself missing a lot from my NS7ii
Yeah, that was a nice piece too.
Rane every day 👍🏾
Great stuff for sure.
Rev 7 FTW...
Love My Rane One… things that could’ve been different
Up faders the same as the cross fader
Battle style setup
On board effects
Sampler Volume
I'm sure there will be a new version by end of year.
@@DJJoeBunn yup… & 4 channels at that… shot who knows maybe even 10 platters
Pro or lite software
I use pro
Rane one all day.
Liked
Subbed
Pre Ordered the Rev7…might cancel and go with RaneOne
I think you can't go wrong either way.
@@DJJoeBunn I have use my turntables but not in a hot minute. I been using controllers so I feel the RaneOne might be the way
Been DJing for a minute… had a Rane One, didn’t really dig it, sold it! Got the Rev7! No regrets!!! Sound quality of the Rev7 is better than the Rane! However, having an external power brick is the only con for me with the Rev7.
I couldn't tell a sound difference. Both are nice.
You bugging. Rane one better it’s 48 hz and rev 7 is 44hz
@@donaldccannon1 44hz? That's poor. Barely CD quality
Omg by the time you get to the actual controllers..
Rane one all day
Very good video Joe. I have the Rane One. It’s a fun controller.
Rane one all the way.
No inbuilt effects !!!
these two Controllers are not made for Wedding DJs the most Mobile DJs are Wedding or Event DJs these Controllers made more for turntablism or showcase Djs and Club Djs as well.
Don't really agree
@@DJJoeBunn why?? or for those like the Turntable Feelings?
Disagree. Both controllers do everything the other higher end controllers do but with the added benefit of motorized platters.
When someone post with out think the response through lol. Do you even have either 1. To say it’s not good for weddings. Both have two mic out put. That alone screams I can use at weddinds
@@donaldccannon1 I just got my rev7 into today. Absolutely. I plan on using it everywhere.
stick with Denon
worst advice ever
